The Situation: Chat Question #1
How would you describe your own experience as a student with “online learning” or “virtual training”? (satisfying…unsatisfying?)
What has been one of your best online learning experiences to date? What features of that experience stand out for you?
![Page 5: Building International Communication Online with Pearson English Interactive Michael Rost Michael.rost@latcomm.com](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081603/56649e875503460f94b8b178/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
The Situation: Chat Question #2
• Give my students more practice time
• Give my students additional tools for learning English
• Allow for better communication with my students
• Make my role more manageable
• Give me more free time
• Be more in tune with current trends
• I just love technology!

As a teacher, what is your primary reason for wanting to use technology in language learning?
![Page 6: Building International Communication Online with Pearson English Interactive Michael Rost Michael.rost@latcomm.com](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081603/56649e875503460f94b8b178/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
The Situation: • Students need more practice time. Asynchronous online instruction is the most feasible option.
• Online networking is part of modern life. Connecting language learning with students’ “online life” is natural.
• Independent learners tend to be the most successful. Providing the most meaningful online tools to them will make them more independent.
• Online communication is an alternate – not replacement – form of communication. It provides an additional “field” for language acquisition. • A significant aspect of “21st Century Communicative Competence” is participating in & managing online communication. Coding, running applications, playing, uploading, sharing, hacking, posting, editing are all 21C Communication skills.

The Great Technology Divide “The Haves”COMPLICATION

The Great Technology Divide “The Have Nots”COMPLICATION
![Page 9: Building International Communication Online with Pearson English Interactive Michael Rost Michael.rost@latcomm.com](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081603/56649e875503460f94b8b178/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Word Cloud responses: Describe your ‘user experience’ with ‘virtual training’ …
The Great ‘User Experience’ DivideCOMPLICATION
![Page 10: Building International Communication Online with Pearson English Interactive Michael Rost Michael.rost@latcomm.com](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081603/56649e875503460f94b8b178/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
‘User experiences’ & ‘outcomes’ will always be mixed.
COMPLICATION
• There are too many technical variables to predict universal success.
• Users without goal orientation are easily demotivated by “negative impact” experiences.
• Retention rates very low without ongoing encouragement
• Attention spans getting shorter.
• Without active “gamification”, user lacks “stake” in the outcome.
• Without appeal to sensory and emotional “learning styles”, users become disengaged.

• greater predictability
• more control of pace
• less “loss of face” with errors
• more practice time for oral skills (listening, speaking, conversation [role play], pronunciation)
• “full time conversation partner” = Ss need more conversation practice
